9680 yards. Miles biked a total of 9680 yards.
The key to solve this problem is coverting the Mixed Fraction to Improper Fraction, and make the conversion from miles to yards.
Convert the Mixed Fraction 5 1/2 to an Improper Fraction:
- Multiply the whole number 5 by the denominator
5 x 2 = 10
- Add the result to the numerator
1 + 10 = 11
- Write the Improper Fraction with the same denominator of the Mixed Fraction, and the numerator with the result above
5 1/2 miles ----------> 11/2 miles
To convert miles to yard with mile = 1760 yards:
11/2 * 1760 yards = 19360 yards/2 = 9680 yards
